This article https://www.washingtonpost.com/climate- solutions/2021/02/25/climate- curious-food-waste/ outlines ways to do so. The only tools you need are pen and paper to plan meals, make lists of what you have in your pantry and refrigerator and write a shopping list. Pope Francis tells us in Laudato Si' "whenever food is thrown out it is as if it were stolen from the table of the poor." Please read the article to learn how discarded food contributes to climate change as well.
